The main room has been named after project lead Ron Delaland who was surprised to discover this detail upon unveiling the entryway. The clubhouse includes a pro shop, amenities, offices, two meeting areas and a cafe named The Terrace, which is open to members and the public, and has views over the course. A separate function centre business continues to operate upstairs. The works began in May of 2024 and finished in October 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Photos: EDWINA WILLIAMS<\/p>\n<style id=\"bwg-style-0\">      #bwg_container1_0 #bwg_container2_0 .bwg_masonry_thumb_0 {
